GENESIS OF 'GIS'

AFTER 50 YEARS IN THE FINAL FRONTIER...

PLANET 'GAY' IN THE 'QUEER QUADRANT' HAS FINALLY BEEN DISCOVERED

"One of the most important tools to have while struggling to fix the problems of today, is HOPE for tomorrow." - DAN DEEVY, Founder

On July 22, 2016 the STAR TREK franchise took an impressive, albeit long overdue, step forward by finally featuring an openly Gay character in their latest feature film, STAR TREK: BEYOND.

This was a HUGE step forward for the LGBTQ community in the history of the franchise.

After so many years of feeling marginalized and forgotten, the significance of seeing ourselves as active, equal members of the all-inclusive Utopian future that GENE RODDENBERRY created for mankind at long last was truly overwhelming.

We felt obligated to not allow this moment in history to pass without commemoration and so we created a multi-city, cross country futuristic equality celebration tour called... GAAAYS IN SPAAACE.

We hosted our first official GAAAYS IN SPAAACE celebration on August 4, 2016 in LAS VEGAS and were absolutely blown away by the positive response we received.

NANA VISITOR (Major Kira Nerys of STAR TREK: DS9 ) was our very special guest for the evening and was an absolute delight! She had so much fun mingling and chatting with all of her LGBTQ fans that she promised to attend as many subsequent 'GIS' events as possible.

On September 2nd GAAAYS IN SPAAACE landed in the heart of NEW YORK CITY's theatre district and true to her word NANA was there w/us! We were also thrilled to welcome both CIRROC LOFTON (Jake Sisko of STAR TREK: DS9 ) and ROD RODDENBERRY (Exec. Producer, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY) that evening as well.
